zinefest berlin 2012

sunday afternoon i visited 'zinefest berlin' in mehringhöfen, kreuzberg. faszinating glimpse into a culture, that rarely makes it to my settled charlottenburg living area. naturally i was most interested in visual experiments, that variied from 'brut' to sophisticated (or both together).
and i loved the ultraliberal relaxed atmo. i spend an hour in the foyer area, that contained library, bar, lot of stands and folk.
